My Profile

About

Daniele is Professor at the Center for Ecohydraulics Research. He held post-doctoral research positions at the University of California at Berkeley (USA) and at the University of Trento (Italy). He received engineering degrees from the University of Trento (BS, MS, 2000) and the University of Idaho (PhD, 2005). His research focuses on the interaction between surface and subsurface waters, riverine aquatic habitat and use of remote sensing in monitoring stream hydraulics. He is an IAHR, ASCE and AGU member. He serves as Associate Editor for the scientific journals of Water Resources Research, Hydrological Processes and Hydraulic Engineering.
